are you sure the word you were going for there wasnt "metaphorical"? i can understand how one might get those two words confused. metaphysical, metaphorical...

Not to mention the word 'elude', which should be 'allude'...lol..
Hey ho....maybe heaven will have a dictionary!
Regards midicon.
I would bet mockery will be eluded in heaven.

I am sure you would, although betting on what heaven will be like is just shallow silliness. Speculation might be acceptable but tossing in betting is childish.
If you are going to use words then at least try and understand the meaning first. Hey and while you are doing that you might look up humour.
I did ask the OP what he would be doing in heaven. He and another gave an answer. I didn't reply to the first because it wasn't a direct reply to me and in the second instance I replied then edited it out because I wasn't sure if Chester John was being serious or was attempting humour.
It's all good
midicon.
Humor at the expense of others is the basis of bullying. Mockery is wicked. Even within friends groups when it is "all in good fun", it is still toxic. Humor at its best mentions truth while making people laugh in their intense revelation:

Before I start, I would like to make clear that I am Christian, and I have no doubt what-so-ever that I am going to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven when I leave this earth, but I also believe that you can still enter into Heaven even if you have a totally different belief system other than my own. No human can say whether or not you are going to heaven or hell. That is not for myself, nor any other person to decide. That is a choice between that person and God only, no matter what name they call Him.

What about all the people who died before Jesus was around? Surely it's not fair to condemn those people to hell?

Nope sorry only a few of those commandments have anything to do with being good the rest is to boost the fake gods ego.

The way it turned out, the Greek and Latin pantheons seem to represent the all-time winners when it comes to actually going to heaven-- or space with its stars and lights in the heavens beyond the clouds and the sky. «The Eagle» Apollo and its Saturn rocket, eh? I don't know for sure, but as far as I know no Christian saints have ever reached orbit or been in space.
